Returning to the Last City, Zavala met with Ikora, who passed along intelligence that pointed to a [[Imperial Land Tank]] on [[Nessus]] being key to the Caiatl's operations. Zavala dispatched the Young Wolf and other Guardians to strike at the site and gather intelligence. As the battle began, the Young Wolf recovered intelligence revealing that [[Commander Dracus]] was leading the operation. Zavala informed them that Dracus was a former [[Legionary]] of the Red Legion turned warlord and responsible for murdering many Lightless Guardians during the Red War. He ordered them to eliminate Dracus in retribution for those slain Guardians and to deny Caiatl from gaining him as a key commander in her efforts to reintegrate the Red Legion into the Cabal Empire.<ref name="BB"/>

After the elimination of Dracus and the recovery of a [[Bell of Conquests]] from him, Zavala directed the Young Wolf to travel to the newly completed [[H.E.L.M.]], which would serve as Vanguard's center of operations for any emerging crises around the system. When they reached the war table Zavala appeared before them as a hologram and congratulated them on their successful mission. He then briefed them on what had transpired with Caiatl and that the information they recovered revealed Caiatl was conducting [[Rite of Proving|Rites of Proving]] to put together a [[War Council]] from the remnants of the Red Legion and other Cabal in the system. To prevent this, Zavala ordered the creation of a task force led by Lord [[Saladin Forge]] to interfere with their Rites and eliminate key Cabal commanders. He assigned Osiris to advise Saladin, and the former Warlock recruited a new Hunter called [[Uldren Sov|Crow]] as a recon expert while Amanda provided air support to their strikes. Zavala hoped that by preventing the Cabal from unifying around new leadership they could avoid triggering another all-out war in the system.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Quests (Destiny 2)|Quest]]: [[A Challenger Rises]] - [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/the-war-table The War Table]''</ref>


A week later, Zavala was informed by Master [[Rahool]] of a distress signal sent by the Hunter [[Katabasis]] that had been exposed to the Darkness. The Cryptarch traced the point of origin to the wreck of the ''[[Glykon Volatus]]'', a [[Cabal Carrier]] belonging to the deposed [[Emperor Calus]]. Concerned about what Katabasis was doing on the ship and the involvement of the Darkness, Zavala decided to send the Young Wolf in to investigate. Briefing the Young Wolf, Zavala noted that while distress signals were far too common now, he wanted this one investigated as soon as possible before Caiatl had the chance to respond, as she too would likely have intercepted it and was seeking information about her deposed father's activities. He also urged them to be cautious and take a team while Osiris operated as command for the mission.<ref name="TVOS">'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Quests (Destiny 2)|Quest]]: [[The Voice on the Other Side]]''</ref>
